Open paan shops or breed cows. Don't run after govt jobs: Tripura CM
April 29, 2018 17:40
Days after sparking a controversy with his critique of model-actor Diana Hayden, Tripura Chief Minister Biplab Kumar Deb is at it again.
Deb advised the educated youth in his state to "set up paan shops instead of running after political parties for several years to get government jobs and waste the vital time of their life."
He also stated that a bank balance of Rs. 5 lakh would have been a reality by now for them if they would have opened the paan shop from the start.
Educating the youth about self-employment, he said, "Every house should have a cow. The milk here is 50 rs per litre. Instead of running around for a job for 10 years, if he would have breed cow for 10 years, he could have managed a bank balance of Rs 10 lakh."
This is no the first time that Biplab Deb has made controversial statment.
Earlier, Deb claimed that internet, satellite and technology (that we use today) was present in the Mahabharata era.
On April 27, Deb invited another row controversy to his doorstep when he questioned the rationale behind crowning Diana Hayden Miss World 21 years ago.
Deb also said that mechanical engineers should not opt for civil service. He said civil engineers are more suited for civil services.
